Chapter 757

That little notebook, of course, wasn't the Book of Life and Death; it was the information Kongming had specially given them before Tang Luo and the others left.

It recorded the prominent figures among the Western gods and demons walking the world.

Quite renowned, and quite powerful.

If they encountered any difficulties, don't be afraid; just go find them with a smile, and they would help Tang Luo solve the problem.

These people all really liked helping others for the joy of it.

That was what Kongming said.

So Tang Luo and the others came looking for people; running into Veda was pure luck.

They just happened to be passing by here, just happened to see him; if Veda hadn't been in a hurry to flee, Tang Luo and the others would have needed some time to find him.

If they couldn't find him, they'd go look for someone else.

Hearing Ao Yulie's words, Veda instinctively looked toward the SUV parked at the side.

Ao Yulie instantly got angry: You actually look down on me! Think I can't represent Master?

I'm Master's most beloved disciple!

Veda also realized his mistake and immediately turned his head, but felt some disdain in his heart.

The demon monk Xuanzang rose meteorically, suppressing all gods and demons walking the world; his strength was something they had to submit to.

But you, this pendant, are just a fox exploiting a tiger's might.

As a dragon essence, Ao Yulie saw through Veda's inner thoughts at a glance and snorted coldly: "What, you think I'm not worthy?"

Veda, who had deliberately expressed a hint of disdain, felt a secret joy — hook taken — but his face shifted to an "ingratiating" expression: "No."

"How about this: we fight fair. If you lose, you wholeheartedly do one thing for us." Ao Yulie said.

"What if I win?" Veda asked.

"Naturally, you still wholeheartedly do one thing for us." Ao Yulie said.

Veda froze for a moment — isn't that what I have to do if I lose?

Then he immediately reacted: Damn!

This pendant is actually this shameless? Regardless of win or lose, he has to do the task.

"Exactly." Ao Yulie held his head high. "The only difference is whether you want to take a beating."

Veda was also a proud person and couldn't help retorting angrily: "You're that confident?"

Ao Yulie nodded.

Bullying gods and demons walking the world, he was brimming with confidence.

"Then come!" Veda abruptly stood up.

"Come!"

Ao Yulie tossed the little notebook, and Piggy Bajie, who was just getting out of the car, happened to catch it.

Tang Luo also got out of the car and simply sat on the hood: Watching a fight, watching a fight.

After a thought, he raised a hand and pointed: "Buddha's Dharma is boundless."

Veda instantly felt himself ignite, burning fiercely like flames; power surged and swelled within him, capable of a hundred times in one night.

"Master?!" Ao Yulie felt his heart ache; the dragon's world turned gray.

Tang Luo didn't speak; he drew talismans in the void.

Iron Armor, Flight, Substitute Death, Swift Wind — Invisibility wasn't needed.

Four Blood Talismans were tossed onto Veda.

"You've been enhanced; go get beaten quick." Tang Luo said to Veda.

"Yes, Holy Monk!" Though he didn't know why, it didn't stop Veda from going up to get beaten.

"If you lose, you know..." Tang Luo glanced at Ao Yulie, conveying it with his eyes.

Ao Yulie helplessly nodded: I just wanted to bully a junior and act imposing; is it this hard?

The battle between the two lasted an intensely fierce five minutes, ending in Veda's defeat.

Ao Yulie lightly shook his clothes, shaking off the dust and smoke.

Even enhanced, Veda was still far from matching him.

"How could this be!"

Veda lay on the ground, face full of disbelief; he lost, and even enhanced he still lost.

And he lost thoroughly.

The opponent hadn't even gone all out!

Veda was certain the enhancement was real, not a trick.

Yet even so, he still lost.

"Heh heh." Ao Yulie started up: "This young master has always been hidden under Master's radiance — did that give you some misunderstanding?"

"..."

Veda thought about it, and it really was true.

Recalling, this Number One Pendant — no, the legendary Ao Yulie who would become a dragon — back in that reality mission was also a powerhouse who suppressed the Hellhound.

And Veda, once one of the Twelve Main Gods, was actually in the same tier.

And following the demon monk Xuanzang, his strength advanced by leaps and bounds; by now he's certainly a top-tier powerhouse too.

Just hidden under the demon monk's radiance, or rather, shrouded in the demon monk's dark aura, not showing his true colors.

When he truly bares his fangs, it's enough to shock the world (gods and demons walking the world), just like now.

"I lost." Veda slowly climbed up. "What do you need me to do?"

"That power of yours just now was the Force; you're that Dark Knight, hmm, Dark Lord destiny?" Ao Yulie wasn't in a rush anymore.

He was dying to review his brilliant play from just now on the spot.

The stronger the enemy, the cooler I am.

"No, actually I just got the 'Force' skill after completing a mission once, and later it became my own ability, so I simply pretended..." Vader said.

He really isn't the destiny of Darth Vader from Star Wars.

He just lets everyone think he is; even though it has no meaning, it's still a secret only he himself knows.

"Forget it." Ao Yulie instantly lost interest and returned to the main topic, "What we need you to do is very simple: help us gather all Western God-Demon Walkers within a radius of ten thousand li as much as possible."

"..."

Vader's pupils dilated, and he almost blurted out, "You might as well just kill me."

He forcibly held it back and asked with a stammer: "Th-this, what is this for?"

"Heh heh heh heh..." Ao Yulie laughed with a villain's voice, laughing until Vader felt a chill in his heart; Western God-Demon Walkers, done for!

After laughing, he said: "Actually I don't want to do anything, I just want to curse you lot out."

The contrast before and after was too great; Vader's voice came out high and sharp: "What?"

"Alright, actually it's that this poor monk wants to practice a skill." Tang Luo said, "It would be more convenient, so I ask Benefactor to grant a little convenience, alright?"

Tang Luo got out of the car and walked up to Vader and said.

Vader didn't dare look down, retreated two steps, and straightforwardly knelt on one knee, his voice trembling slightly: "Holy Monk, is it an attack skill?"

This isn't granting a little convenience at all!

"No, it's a control skill." Tang Luo said.

I mock you, you come chase and kill me, that equals being controlled by me.

Perfectly logical, irrefutable.

"Monks don't speak falsehoods, Benefactor need not doubt." Tang Luo put Vader at ease.

"If I really wanted to make a move on you, you'd already be dead." Ao Yulie said.

Would Vader doubt Ao Yulie's credibility?

From a rational standpoint, he should doubt; even if the Demon Monk Xuanzang were stronger still, with the ability to turn an entire city to flying ash in one strike.

He also couldn't possibly do this.

Many God-Demon Walkers gather in this city, but no matter how you put it, the vast majority of people in this city are ordinary people.

But from intuition, Vader believed this sentence deeply; a voice in the depths of his heart was roaring: He really can do it!

"I alone cannot do it." Vader let out a breath and said.

"Go contact others who can help you; I give you one month's time." Tang Luo said.

"Okay." Vader nodded.

The three got back in the car, and the car slowly drove out of the underground parking lot.

On Vader's side he was gathering God-Demon Walkers, while Tang Luo's daily practice couldn't stop either; two-pronged approach, finally integrating the Mockery skill in one go.

Although the Mockery skill was already level three, to integrate it fully, the difficulty was a bit greater than imagined.

"Look at me, trash."

"Noob."

"Trash dog."

"Don't feel like cursing people today, so I'll curse you lot a bit."

The art of language is infinite.

Especially since God-Demon Walkers all come with language comprehension, Mockery as a control skill was brought into full play.

In half a month, several God-Demon Walker gathering spots in this city suffered.

Subjected to a "siege" by a mysterious trio.

One locks the door, one curses people, one discharges electricity; after finishing they swaggered away.

No one knows what they actually want to do.

Everyone completely cannot understand this group's thinking.

Equivalent to ordinary criminals in Gotham seeing a green-haired man there going "wuwu zhazha 'this city needs a little classy crime'," then burning all the money with a single fire.

Psychos!

You're this strong, go do something proper!

Just as everyone was cursing up a storm, Vader stepped forward; he stated he had already discovered that group's identity and also understood their purpose.

These people are the Holy Monk Xuanzang's impersonators!

That's right; although in private they all call him Demon Monk, even in the Western world, publicly God-Demon Walkers still address him as "Holy Monk" every time.

This news spread out.

A group of God-Demon Walkers instantly realized; no wonder some people's descriptions said one of that group looked very similar to the Demon Monk's current appearance.

Scared them into cold sweats and utter bewilderment.

Now Vader stepped out and resolved their bewilderment.

After understanding that group's identity as "Holy Monk Xuanzang impersonators," their purpose was also clear at a glance.

Definitely wants to provoke a great war between Eastern and Western God-Demon Walkers; their hearts deserve execution!

Now, Vader is trying his best to track these people; once there's news he'll inform, requesting all God-Demon Walkers to jointly execute these dangerous conspirators.

Vader's words don't actually carry that much weight.

Quite a few people half-believe half-doubt, feeling it might be too child's play; suddenly a few conspirators jump out.

Suddenly they want to provoke a great war.

Haven't even brushed their teeth yet, and can a great war be provoked by this kind of thing?

But many senior god-demon wanderers felt that what Veda said was not false; merely pretending to be the monk Xuanzang was the act of a madman.

It is normal for such a madman to want to provoke a great war.

A group of powerful god-demon wanderers immediately transmitted the message back to the Standing Committee of the Chinese God-Demon Wanderers.

They declared that they had uncovered the conspiracy and would absolutely not do anything irrational.

At that time, they would surely send the impostor's head; if uneasy, they could also dispatch a team to come over and jointly pursue those with ulterior motives and heinous intentions, the impostors.

Upon receiving the news, Kongming and others looked utterly bewildered.

What situation is this? That is not an impostor, but the real Tang Xuanzang!

On the other side, more powerful god-demon wanderers stepped forward, publicly expressing deep concern about this matter and offering substantial rewards, hoping everyone would unite to jointly pursue the impostors.

Like a gradually rising tide.

More and more god-demon wanderers joined in, just like the real mission of those years.

The situation has become irreversible!

In a spacious conference room of a certain high-rise building, more than twenty god-demon wanderers sat or stood before Veda, all staring at him: "Veda, we ask again—will there be trouble? You had better think clearly before answering, or you will become a sinner!"
